Set your minds back about 4 years, and you will remember that there was once an Adelaide-based game development studio named Ratbag Games. This developer had made a name for itself on racing games, including the rather awesome Powerslide. Anyway, back in 2005, this company was working on a rather awesome PS2 prototype named Wheelman, until the big bad corporation Midway came and bought Ratbag, shut it down a few days before Christmas and ran away with their hard work. Since then, Vin Diesel became attached to the project, the game suffered years of delays, and Midway has almost collapsed, forcing it to co-publish the game with Ubisoft. One could be forgiven for thinking that Wheelman is cursed, given that after all of that, the game isn't really too good.
